Level Up Your Automotive Training with Gamification [RR 973]

Thanks to our Partners, AAPEX, NAPA TRACS, and Automotive Management Network

Research has shown that people forget 90% of what they “learn” in 30 days unless it’s reinforced. But reinforcement isn’t enough. Today’s Class training uses forced recall, a method that creates pathways in a learner’s brain, helping them retain information more effectively.”

David Boyes, from Today’s Class, discusses how daily gamification on Today’s Class’ app can enhance engagement and learning through individual and team-based competitions, rewards points, and prizes. “It’s microdosing of training. It’s a set of daily questions on a daily basis.”
